Senior Programs

Our Senior Drama Program for children aged 11-16 uses a variety of techniques to develop young peoples’ acting skills and knowledge of theatre. Improved self-esteem, heightened communications skills and strong self-awareness are just some of the benefits we see in senior students who participate in drama classes. Plus there is always a lot of fun and the advantage of working with other students in a team environment towards a final goal.

When are the Senior classes?

Classes are held weekly during the school term at Elwood College and there is a choice of two times:

Wednesday 5.30-6.30pm
Saturday 11.30am-12.30pm
